Victor wants them to get married again, with the honeymoon starting now. Later, Victor suggests a party tomorrow night. Nikki asks him not to exclude Billy.

Sharon says she had a breakdown and was diagnosed as bi-polar. Nick asks about her doctor. Sharon says Adam found her - he practically saved her life. Noah arrives and Nick asks Sharon if she had anything to do with the ranch burning down. She denies it. Nick asks Noah. He denies it too. Nick snarks about Adam being a hero.

Jack arrives at Newman and barks questions at Adam. He asks him to look into Jabot's financials. Adam says he told him not to pursue that. Jack stammers and asks about Tokyo. Adam replies, "I just told you that, Jack." Kyle and Phyllis arrive and meet Avery - Jack summoned them all. Avery and Phyllis discuss Summer. Phyllis tells her to borrow someone else's kid on the next holiday. In the meeting, Jack acts moody, distracted, and forgetful. Avery and Phyllis dish about it later. Adam thinks being involved will help Jack's recovery and suggests they give him a break. In the corridor, Jack is rude to Kyle and pops pills. In the office, Phyllis confronts Adam about the painkiller research. Adam tells her to stop with the conspiracy theories - he'll do right by Jack. Once alone, Adam reads about Oxycodone. Nick barges in and thanks him for helping Sharon, but warns him not to exploit her. Adam says she doesn't need a knight in shining armor - she's strong. They bicker. Avery spots Nick leaving.

Adam agrees to think about it. He tells Sharon about the party.

In the corridor at Newman, Kyle and Phyllis discuss being worried about Jack, and how Adam reacted. She suggests they watch him and report back. Kyle grins. "We'll be talking every five minutes."

At home, Jack makes a deal on the phone and swigs a drink of whiskey.

Nikki tells Victor, in the living room, that Nick's bringing a date. Victor says he'll try to be happy that Nick's in a good place.

Now that the penthouse is ready for occupancy, are they still going to rebuild the ranch?

Wish Nick would stop sticking his big nose into Sharon's business I am truly sick of him and his judgemental,controlling man-boy personality. He has played his own part in Sharon's disintergration with all his ping ponging between those two women and he should take responsibilty for that instead of always blaming Adam. I wish he would do what he does best; cut and run when the going gets tough and leave the cleaning up to the real adults!

I'm sure Nikki will be elated with NIck's new club. I know she will be hoping he will hire her as his pole dancer or lap dancer. Ha! Ha!

I love this site.

Oh boy, CARMINE IS ALIVE AND WELL! I thought we'd lost this hottie as well. Wonder who's "boy-toy" he's gonna be? Young Kyle still lusting after Phyllis. At least Eden picks up on it; thought Jack would have but guess that is to come yet. Nick take it easy on Sharon. She has an ILLNESS and is trying to manage it. Soooo glad Sharon/Noah/Adam are all on the same page about her NOT confessing to the fire. Part of me says all the Newman's pushed her into it...the other part says she an arsonist but who cares because everyone else on the show gets a free pass on their crimes. I am so loving the maturity the writer's have given Noah.

Time to see more of PAUL and Christine, please!!

Anxious to see Nikki/Victor's penthouse. Hope it has a modern touch instead of looking like a funeral parlor.

Not much going on here. Pill addiction: old. Nikki and Victor: old. Nick and Sharon: old. Kyle after Phyllis: distasteful. Adam and Nick: old. I skim the recaps and don't watch the DVR anymore. Soon I won't waste the electricity taping. Very soon.

ok so nick knows know about sharon. why is he so up in arms about it. why is he mad is it becasue adam help sharon or cause he didn't . he goes and thanks adam but tell him to more or less stay away from sharon .so nick does that mean you will be there to help her. cause right now she has noah and adam and her dr. are you goingto be there when she feels the walls are closing in . will you be there to hold her and tell her it will be ok. i hope you will be there when your mother starts on her . will you finaly find that back bone and back your mother off the mother of your childern.

phyllis why do you care about sharon . why is it your place to tell nick shron is back . you and nick are not married and its none of your bizwaxs what sharon is doing. stay in yoru ph and leave her alone.

omg victor you are one sick man . why do you want your daughter without a man . over the years we have watch how you control her life more than anyones . do you want to be the man in her life.after you push for the sharon/ victor s/l .which i thought was sick maybe it is fianly coming clear as to why you did push for it.

nikki do you have a say in anything . why don't you stand up to victor and tell him you want vicky and billy there. oh i forgot you do whatever old vic tells you . you don't want to rock the boat. you should have been 1950 wife instead of a wife of 2012

I wonder if Nikki will discover Jack's addiction and try to help him. Jackie don't you know you never mix painkillers with alcohol? Where is John's ghost when you need it?

Why is Carmine back? Somebody is going to have an affair. If not, oh well at least it's 5:00 somewhere in the world.

Summer is snooping through Avery's storage unit. WTH is that girl up to?

I find it ironic Nick wants to open up a bar knowing Nikki is an alcoholic. How long will it be before Nikki falls off the wagon?

Ok. Did we see Sharon with just ONE bottle of pills? I have a lot of experience with bipolar disorder (family curse, I think) and a patient with bpd should never have just an antidepressant. Sharon needs a stabilizer too. Now it sounds like she is about to go into a manic surge and tell the whole Newman family that she burned down the ranch b/c when someone is manic, she feels invincible. The stabilizer is supposed to level things out so the patient does not dip into mania. I am dreading this. Nick had better step up for her.
